94 Honda Civic 66000 miles. Can i drive home (250 m) with a cracked head gasket w/o engine damage?

I am in my last semester of college and recently my car has been acting up and began to overheat, lose coolant at a rapid pace, and the honda mechanic said that I have a cracked head gasket. They say that the repair costs will run from $1300-3600. Can i drive it home about 250 miles safely without the ngine giving up on me? I am planning on stopping every 60 miles or so to let the engine cool down and add more coolant. I know that if too much coolant gets into the engine it can cause engine damage. I have a reliable mechanic who can fix it at home and for cheap. Should I wait until i get home to get it fixed or fix it up at school? Thanks for the help.94 Honda Civic 66000 miles. Can i drive home (250 m) with a cracked head gasket w/o engine damage?have you looked into the price of getting it towed home? thats a long way to drive home if it is sucking coolant out of it.. its your call, i am not gonna tell you to drive it and then recieve hatemail the rest of my life cuz it blew up on ya.. whats the car worth? if its worth more than 1300-3600 bucks, i would not drive it.. less than that, go for it!!94 Honda Civic 66000 miles.

If the coolant is leaking externally you may make it. If it is leaking into the oil in any way the risk of damage to the entire engine is greater. Get it fixed before the trip would be my suggestion, why risk it. Whatever you do, don't try putting sealant in the radiator as a fix. That stuff does more harm than good in the long run.94 Honda Civic 66000 miles. Can i drive home (250 m) with a cracked head gasket w/o engine damage?DO NOT DRIVE CAR. I had the same situation with my Mercury. I kept on driving it until I blew the heads completely. I am still paying for them.94 Honda Civic 66000 miles.

thats pretty far to go with a damaged head gasket... if you dont really care about the car you can remove the hood, which would help alittle with the over heating. Also clean the air filter. I wouldnt do it.. but good luck.
